1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundEndometrial cancer combining uterus didelphys is quite rare clinically which partially explains that there is no discussion about young patients' fertility preservation and follow up of tumor outcome. CASE PRESENTATION: In this article, we report a case of unilateral endometrial carcinoma found in a young patient with uterus didelphys who was treated with high-efficiency progesterone due to unfinished child-bearing. During the follow-up, the affected uterine endometrium was not reversed by progesterone. So, the patient underwent the abdominal surgery with the left uterus and left fallopian tube resection. We performed three consecutive immunohistochemical studies of the contralateral uterine endometrium to verify the safety of preserving the contralateral uterus and its appendages which preserved her fertility.

conclusionsEndometrial cancer occurring in patients with uterus didelphys is quite rare in child-bearing age. In this case report, we preserved the patient's contralateral uterus based on patient's strong needs and negative IHC analysis of the preserved side uterine endometrium. However, the tumor and fertility outcome require more follow-up.
